Even with the patch we're discussing, the total number of snapshots produced by people on sagenb.org in the last 20 hours is over 10,000: s...@sagenb:~/sagenb$ ls -1 */worksheets/*/*/snapshots/*|wc -l 10395 So it really doesn't cut down on them very much. Of course a lot of people use sagenb.org, e.g., well over 100 distinct uses just *yesterday*, and over 7200 registered users. I also like the idea to reduce the total max number of autosaved to some fixed number, e.g., 30. -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
